i had a hyst 8 weeks ago my belly feels really bruised on my right side.does any body know how long this will last for? x
Not sure but Arnica 30c helps with bruising to heal tissues etc. If in doubt check with doctor / Gyna again on this.
Hi Stacey... I too had a hyst 8 weeks ago.. and yes, I have a tender side, the left.. I also notice if I sit TOO LONG, it begins to give me discomfort... also driving too long.
My doctor said its still in a "healing mode".. I will have these discomforts.. she said a good 6 months to feel better, too heal better...
hope you feel better soon!

Iam 7 weeks post op and mine hurts on the left at the bottom. I think it can take upto 12 weeks untill we feel better. I have had two water infections so maybe see you docter and get your water checked or you may have an infection in your tummy. Maybe you have over done too much ? X

Hi Stacey
I am also 8 weeks post op and still have discomfort bruise like feeling., especially when ive done alot.
yesturday I did my first proper long drive and last night I was very tender,
also notice the bruising when I go for a no.2!
I agree with dee, it aparently lasts for months yet we will get there tho.
I also have no feeling (numbness) in a band across my stomach, nerve damage during cut, unlikely that will be back for at least a year doc said if at all!
From what I keep noticing on here.. a LOT of us have that pain.. either on left or right side... mine is the left.. especially if I sit too long or long car rides... I think I will make another call to my dr. and talk about it.. I will let you guys know!
Iam the same it's all on my left at the bottom
Iam off tomorrow for my check up at the hospital Iam 7 weeks post op. Nor sure what it is I will let you no tomorrow

Thanks everyone for your replies. I have had two infection in 4 weeks of having the op and had a blood clot removed from the top of my volt which was 7cm by 2cm.I dont drive and i have only been washing the pots. Its only sore when i touch it near my belly button.
also does your belly go bigger and bigger? Mine is only sort of flat when i wake up in a morning but as soon as i do something it just swells up alot.
Yes my tummy is flat in the morning and at night
I look 5 months pregnant. Mt boobs have gone do big and I've put 1 stone on. Iam 7 weeks post op.
Did you get the blood clot after your op? If so what signs did you get. I had some socks to wear for 6 weeks after my op but only had them on for 2 weeks. But the last few weeks I've had pain in my knee cap on the right ans top of my arm.
I've had two water infections aswell.
Hope you are starting to feel a little better x
i had the hysterectomy on the 11th nov and on the 21st nov i went to the loo and started bleeding quite alot ended back up at the hopsital and 5 days after i had a scan and it showed the clot.the only pain i got was when i went to the toliet for a wee it burnt across my cut on the inside. Did you take the socks off when they told you to? x i did wear the socks but only untill they told me to. x and i am just fed up x
i has lost weight and i look pregnant. x
What did you have done ? Part or full have you got your ovaries still ?
I should of had them on fir 6 weeks but I only had them on for 2 weeks. Well you have been through alot. Iam the same I keep falling out with my self
It is a big op and people say after we will never look back. But I will never bloody forget it.
Chin up we are all in this together 😘
yeah everyone keeps saying give it time. I didn't think i would of been like this after the op. If you don't mind me asking how old are you?Maybe you will forget in time.
And yes all in it together : )
still have my ovaries. and they tryed both ways to do the hysterectomy.
8 weeks post op and yes my belly is also bigger but no weight gain yet, hopefully that will stay the same.
doc said tummy will be bigger for a while due to muscles all being cut so you cant control it like we used to, really hope I get that back.
im very keen to be one of these women who say it was all worth it, that day wants to hurry up!!!
i can sort of cope with the big belly but when i had mt c section my belly went after 8 week. And i am 8 week on and its still there. I also give up smoking the day i went in.
I know what you mean about that day.I keep getting told it can be a year till everything is back to normal, is that right? x
